Chapter 2

General

English

The hospitality industry in Chian is a growing industry with unique challenges. These challenges will be met by motivated and well trained professionals such as yourself. The English language is a tool that will enable you to communicate with a majority of the guests you meet a Sheraton. In addition, a new world of information and resources will be open to you as you can learn from people form different countries and cultures. In today’s ever increasing competitive enviroment, the most valuable employeses are those people who have the ability to work in many different areas of the hotel. We call this ability “multi-skilled”,and in China one of the biggest barriers to achieving this goal is the language barrier. Study hard, strive for excellence, and remember that at all times you represent Sheraton to our guests., other employees, and the community. Every week we spend 5 days or more per week at work. Why not make this time an investment in your future by taking on more responsibilities, being proactive, and learning as much as you can about our dynamic PEOPLE DRIVEN industry? With your new found “multi-skilled” English abilities and SGSS I guarantee you will have a bright, rewarding, and successful future!
